Quality is key

With more than 10 years of experience renovating Oakville kitchens and Burlington bathrooms, weâve learned a lot. With kitchen and bathroom renovations, there are many points to consider. But perhaps the most important one is quality â and that applies to a number of things.

Quality in materials: While it may be tempting to make use of sales and deals on materials and appliances, buying quality items (even if theyâre more expensive) is worth it. Youâll save yourself the cost of having to replace the items later, and youâll contribute to a much higher-quality renovation of your kitchen or bathroom. Do some research, compare prices and when you find a quality item thatâs worth the price, snap it up!

Quality in design: If you feel comfortable taking on the design of your new space yourself, excellent! You can also collaborate with your contractor for tips. If youâre a bit unsure about the design, itâs recommended to hire a designer â a professional who understands your vision and can help you create it.

Quality in contractors: Do your research. You want a home renovation contractor who is insured, experienced, communicative and honest. Look up the companyâs reviews to get a sense of what its reputation is, and donât be afraid to meet with a representative just to talk first, so you can personally get a feel for who they are.

Quality in workmanship: Of course âa good jobâ is essential to a successful bathroom renovation or kitchen renovation. Select a company with skilled professionals who have a good amount of experience and who you feel are trustworthy.
